Abstract

The prototype of a small wide-angle telescope was installed within the astrophysical complex TAIGA in the Tunka Valley in September 2019. Data were collected on the prototype’s performance during the last eight observation sessions. Operating regimes of the telescope’s systems, the trigger system, and the system for synchronizing with the TAIGA complex were tested. The first results from analyzing data on the prototype telescope’s performance are presented.
